Hevile Logística e Consultoria Internacional Ltda.

Hevile concluded on February
10th the operation of loading a shipment of high complexity from
Korea to Brazil. It is a deckhouse weighing 833 tons and
measuring 27x44x28 m.

Hevile started to work on this job almost
1 year ago when the customer's bidding process was initiated. In
dispute with major players in the market, Hevile was the great winner
of the contract because it presented the best commercial and
technical proposal. The technical scope involved engineering
calculations for studies on lifting and lashing cargo on barge and on
the mother ship for Suape. The great challenge for this shipment was
to be able to reconcile factors that seemed to impede the execution
of the same:
- Limitations of the supplier in terms of loading
possibilities, without proper cranes and limited space on its wharf
for mooring larger ships and floating cranes;
- Limitations in
the cnee where the quay limits the vessels LOA to 120 m;

At
the end of all the planning, that contemplates 4 similar operations
in 2018, the shipment was made feasible as follows:
1- Use of
multi-wheelers for loading on the barge in Ulsan;
2-
Transportation on barge from Ulsan to the port of Masan;
3- Use
of floating crane with capacity of 1200 t for lifting the piece from
the barge to the main ship in Masan;
4- Cargo welding/lashing
and departure from Masan to Suape by means of 119 m LOA vessel
It
is also noteworthy that in addition to the deckhouse on deck, the
holds of the ship were stowed with other cargoes
originating Shanghai, Qingdao and also Masan including a motor
weighing 400 t., the vessel was fully dedicated/chartered
with Hevile´s cargoes from Far East to Brazil.
Hevile
would like to thank the client for the trust deposited, thanks his
technical and commercial team for its dedication to make it happen
and thanks the various partners (agent, port, stevedoring and
lashing/welding operators, , shipowner, etc.) involved in
the design and execution of this beautiful project.

The
next shipment is scheduled for May and the fellow agents interested
